Support Request: Interrupt auto start by pressing a key

Description

Hi, if we have a kiosk set to auto start with shell replacement and 'Disable kiosk input at startup' has not been selected, what key combination will stop SK from auto starting? The goal is to get to the standard windows login screen. (Assuming the standard CTRL ALT F8 'isn't working' once SK loads). Thanks.

Hello,

Usually you can exit SiteKiosk Online on Windows with the F7 key or the key combination CTRL + Shift + F12 (default is F7, can otherwise be configured at >Settings>Client>Security in the Project at https://sitekiosk.online that you published to the client).

Or you can tap in all four corners of the monitor, starting at the top left and continuing clockwise, to bring up the password dialog (if there is no touchscreen, clicking with the mouse will also work).

On https://sitekiosk.online you can also send a Job to the machine to sign off the Windows user (>Control>Jobs>New Job>Action Type: Operating System Command>Add>Logoff (Windows only)).

Otherwise, in Windows, if you do not have keyboard lock enabled (enabled by default if you select Autostart), you can try pressing the Shift key at Windows startup to get the Windows login screen.

On Android you can exit SiteKiosk Online the same way like with SiteKiosk Classic Android:
